Thanks for the report.  I can't reproduce it locally (that is, 'wget
--help' works for me on both 32- and 64-bit cygwin). No help message
printed sounds like it might be a missing entry point in a dll.  To
confirm, can you run:

cygcheck /bin/wget

and see if it mentions any problems?

Meanwhile, upstream just released 1.16.3 today, to fix an upstream
regression introduced in 1.16.2, so I have to rebuild soon anyways. If
it was indeed a missing dll on your part, I can tweak the .hint file for
the next build to avoid the issue for the next user.
